Recall 2017446

The issue

On certain travel trailers, due to insufficient clearance, the Liquid Propane (LP) lines may come in contact with the axle shackle. If this occurs, the LP lines could be damaged by the shackle which could cause a propane leak. A propane leak in the presence of an ignition source could increase the risk of fire causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will install longer LP lines and reroute them away from the axle shackle area.

Description (français)

Sur certaines caravanes classiques, la conduite de propane liquide (PL) pourrait, en raison d'un jeu insuffisant, entrer en contact avec la chape de l'essieu. Si la conduite entre en contact avec la chape de l'essieu, il pourrait y avoir une fuite de propane liquide ce qui pourrait, en présence d'une source d'inflammation, augmenter les risque de blessures et/ou de dommages matériels. Correction : Les concessionnaires doivent installer des conduites de propane liquide plus longues et les réacheminer plus loin de la chape de l'essieu.
